Mac El Captain GoogleEarthPro Not Working

Post by Bear »

Hello,

I have read through the forums and tried multiple things to get my 3Dconnexion to work with GoogleEarth and GoogleEarthPro but can't make and progress.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as this has been ver frustrating.

Thanks,
-Marc

No advice, but I'm also unable to get it to work with these programs.

Hello Bear and neophyte -

The ability to use 3Dconnexion devices in Google Earth is written inside their software code and is supported by Google Earth.

Two things are required - the Non-Mouse Controller option needs to be enabled in Google Earth and the library files need to match the driver version.

Enabling the option in Google Earth :
Tools| Options| Navigation|Non-Mouse Controller| Enable Controller
Appy the change then re-start Google Earth for it to take effect.

Copying the current library files is described here.
This post dates back to January and there is not a newer GE version so the need for a workaround remains.
